JERUSALEM - An Israeli Cabinet minister says his country will "settle the score" with the perpetrators of a bombing attempt in Bangkok.

A wounded Iranian fleeing an unintended explosion at a house threw a grenade at Bangkok police that instead blew off one of his legs in a series of blasts Tuesday. Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said the explosion, which wounded four civilians, was an "attempted terrorist attack" by Iran.

Israel has also blamed Iran for a pair of attacks on Israeli diplomatic targets in India and Georgia on Monday. Tehran has denied responsibility for those attacks.

Speaking on Israel Radio, Public Security Minister Yitzhak Aharonovitch did not mention Iran explicitly, but strongly implied Israel would seek revenge.

"We know who carried out the terror attacks, we know who sent them, and Israel will settle the score with them," he said.

The Bangkok explosions tore the roof off a house where the wounded man lived with two other compatriots. A second Iranian was arrested at Bangkok's international airport as he was trying to leave Thailand for Malaysia and a third was being sought, police said.

Israel's Channel 10 TV quoted unidentified Thai authorities as saying the captured Iranians confessed to targeting Israeli interests. The site of the blast is just a few miles from the Israeli Embassy.

Thai government spokeswoman Thitima Chaisaeng said "we need more analysis" to determine who was behind the attack and whether Iran was involved. She refused to comment on what the Iranians might have been planning or whether targets had been identified.

The explosions in the normally peaceful Thai capital came as tensions are running high between the two Middle Eastern nations because of Israel's threats of military strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities and the recent killings of Iranian atomic scientists. Iran has blamed Israel for the assassinations, and there have been signs that Tehran might try to retaliate.

Iran denied responsibility for the bombing of an Israeli diplomatic car in New Delhi that injured four people and the foiled bombing of an Israeli diplomatic car in Tbilisi, Georgia — both on Monday. Those attacks appeared to mirror the recent killings of Iranian scientists by "sticky bombs."

"The attempted terrorist attack in Bangkok proves once again that Iran and its proxies continue to perpetrate terror," Barak said in Singapore. "The recent terror attacks are yet another example of this."

Iran and its Lebanese ally Hezbollah are "unrelenting terror elements endangering the stability of the region and endangering the stability of the world," added Barak, who was in Bangkok on Sunday, according to Israel's Defense Ministry.

There was no comment from Iranian officials in Tehran on Tuesday's blasts in Thailand.

In Washington, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland didn't blame Iran directly, but she noted Monday's incidents in India and Georgia, and recent "Iranian-sponsored" and "Hezbollah-linked" plots to attack Israeli and Western interests in Azerbaijan and Thailand.

Will Hartley, head of the Terrorism & Insurgency Center at IHS Jane's in London, said the attacks in India, Georgia and Thailand "have all been highly amateurish, and lack the sophistication that would normally be expected from an operation executed by either Hezbollah or Iran's own external operations wing, the Quds Force."

The sequence of Tuesday's blasts in Bangkok began when a stash of explosives apparently detonated by accident in the house occupied by the three Iranians, blowing off part of its roof.

Thai security forces found more explosives in the house, but the possible targets were not immediately known, Police Gen. Pansiri Prapawat said.

Surveillance video from after that blast showed separate images of each of the suspects walking down the middle of a residential street. One man wearing a baseball cap and a dark jacket carried a large backpack over one shoulder and what appeared to be two portable transistor radios — one in each hand.

A second suspect wearing sunglasses, a T-shirt, pants and tennis shoes also carried a backpack. The third, dressed in camouflage shorts, carried nothing.

A man identified as Saeid Moradi was wounded in the initial explosion and left the house, Pansiri said.

"He tried to wave down a taxi, but he was covered in blood, and the driver refused to take him," Pansiri said. Moradi then threw an explosive that damaged the taxi.

Police who had been called to the scene tried to apprehend Moradi, who hurled a grenade at them, "but somehow it bounced back" and blew off his leg, Pansiri said.

Photos of the wounded Moradi showed him covered in soot, lying on a sidewalk strewn with broken glass in front of a primary and secondary school. Hospital officials said Moradi's right leg was severed below the knee, while his left leg was severely injured.

The Iranian arrested at the airport was identified as Mohummad Hazaei and had been in the house at the time the explosives went off, police said.

A third Iranian — believed wounded in the first explosion — was at large, they said.

This just shows how amature the Iranians are with their bottle rockets and roman candles.

They will mess around until Israel makes them glow in the dark.

SHOCKING! ISRAEL UPSET AT IRANIAN ATTACKS ON THEIR DIPLOMATS?!?

What an outrage. I'm sure they will take it up with the UN General
Assembly and the World Court and They will mean it to STING!

rofl


Honestly can you be surprised that some Israelis are declaring that
there will be serious repercussions? You expected maybe sad and
forlorn acquiescence?

rofl

Israel will carefully weigh their options no doubt and take
appropriate actions at a time which suits them and their
objectives best - as we would do right here in the U.S.A.

The Israelis are not slow on the uptake.

Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran!

"An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind". -Gandhi

When will people learn from 60+ years of failed policies in the mideast and expand their vocabularly beyond "bomb them!". Truly a child-like impulse.

This never ceases to be apropos when these discussions pop up:

What a bunch of predicable bull chit.

Israel ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS pretends and accuses someone of "attacking them" so they can justify "settling the score."

Israel is a liar and bully. They don't fool me one bit.

I don't believe a word they say. They also bombed one of our ships "on accident."

The USS Liberty.

Israel has either the most incompetent military ever or they just think everyone else is stupid and that everyone is going to believe their bull crap.

Perhaps you didn't notice. It was the Thai police that said the Iranians admitted to launching attacks against Israeli diplomats in Thailand.

Typical.

Will we ever learn??????????
Jesus..even the mafioso only went after the men involved.
They didn't kill women, children. Organized illegal crime had
more honor than legal wars. WOW!!

Warmongers should ALL get the opportunity to make someone bleed.
They should be given knives, much more brutal and painful, more blood too. Then dropped off in 'enemy' territory and turned loose like the animals they are.

They like to see stuff like this...for some truly sick and disturbing reason. Cold, hateful hearts I guess.









And even a soldier who thinks it's funny to play with dead bodies after he murders them. Warmongers can laugh with him.

Bottom line Israel has the responsibility to protect her citizens from
annihilation. Iranians have been found with blood and grenades so there
is little doubt about who is responsible. Israel always protects her
people and has every right to meet her responsibilities.

Those like Iran and proxies such as Hamas and Hezbollah will find that
threats are taken seriously and appropriate actions will be taken by
those they threaten like the U.S. and Israel.

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance and we are all ready to
defend ourselves from threats of nuclear weapons development and
attacks on our citizens here in the U.S. and I support Israel's
efforts to protect her citizens as well.

We would be well to remember that Iran has sworn the destruction of
the United States too. Watch it here.

Israel always sets those things up. >>False flag operations. Its old hat. They don't have any imagination whatsoever. They do it over and over and over again. They think everyone is stupid.

Well, a lot of people are stupid who believe that. If Israel wants to start a war they will find a way. Same goes for America. They do it all the time and have done it with all the world wars. It is a matter of HISTORY NOW.

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. Fool me over and over and over and I am just plain stupid if I believe that chit.

HAHAHA

Yeah. Ahmadinejad and Khamenei are clearly Mossad agents planted to generate false flag operations! Same with the Iranians who made bombs in Bangkok and the one who blew his own legs off.

Israel sends people into their neighbors country pretending to help them with some humanitarian project but in reality they are only there to spy and collect intelligence on how they can plan an attack to destroy them.

Israel is not the innocent poor defenseless country they try to portray themselves to be. They are loaded with nuclear weapons and advanced war machines and they are trying to expand their own boarders. They are aggressors. America supports them and that is why people hate America.

I do not support Israel aggressors. They are not to be coddled and pitied or trusted. They lie constantly. The leaders of Israel are corrupt criminals.
